Diahann Carroll & Cheryl Boone Isaacs Honored At 'House of Flowers' Dinner

Some of the top African-American women in entertainment, business and philanthropy attended a "House of Flowers" dinner honoring Diahann Carroll and Cheryl Boone Isaacs on Saturday at the home of  television producer Tracey Edmonds.
The dinner was also hosted by Tracey Edmonds and film and television producer Debra Martin Chase. The theme of the evening, "House of Flowers," was inspired by Truman Capote's Broadway play, in which Carroll made her acting debut in 1954. The dinner was meant to "celebrate female empowerment and to help open doors for future accomplishments," said Edmonds.

 "A lot of times there is so much superficial competition, because there are so few opportunities for women of color to succeed in the industry, so you've got to compete versus help each other. It was really beautiful that I got this opportunity to share this evening with Debra Chase, who is a fellow producer," said Edmonds.
